Описание: Actively rewrites and reconfigures how Hong Kong cinema and media are to be defined and located

Examining how Hong Kong filmmakers, spectators and critics wrestled with this perturbation between the Leftist Riots (1967) and the aftermath of the Umbrella Movement (2014), this book traces how Hong Kong's extraterritoriality has been framed: in its position of being doubly occupied and doubly abandoned by contesting juridical, political, linguistic and cultural forces.

• Proposes extraterritoriality as a key theoretical concept
• Forms a dialogue with Postcolonial Studies and Sinophone Studies
• Offers in-depth archival studies of the Hong Kong film industry, television and video arts, as well as major political crises in Hong Kong, including the 1967 Riots, the Sino-British negotiation of Hong Kong's 'future', the Closer Economic Partnership Arrangement and the Umbrella Movement

Описание: In Cinema Approaching Reality, Victor Fan brings together, for the first time, Chinese and Euro-American film theories and theorists to engage in critical debates about film in Shanghai and Hong Kong from the 1920s through 1940s. His point of departure is a term popularly employed by Chinese film critics during this period, bizhen, often translated as \u201clifelike\u201d but best understood as \u201capproaching reality.\u201d What these Chinese theorists mean, in Fan\u2019s reading, is that the cinematographic image is not a form of total reality, but it can allow spectators to apprehend an effect as though they had been there at the time when an event actually happened. Fan suggests that the phrase \u201capproaching reality\u201d can help to renegotiate an aporia (blind spot) that influential French film critic Andr\u00e9 Bazin wrestled with: the cinematographic image is a trace of reality, yet reality is absent in the cinematographic image, and the cinema makes present this absence as it reactivates the passage of time. Fan enriches Bazinian cinematic ontology with discussions on cinematic reality in Republican China and colonial Hong Kong, putting Western theorists—from Bazin and Kracauer to Baudrillard, Agamben, and Deleuze—into dialogue with their Chinese counterparts. The result is an eye-opening exploration of the potentialities in approaching cinema anew, especially in the photographic materiality following its digital turn.
